Long Hot Night Lyrics


There's a freight train roaring through the dead of night
Heading straight for Yuma
I hear it every time it rolls through this townIt's one a.m. and I'm wide awake
Too hot for sleeping
Those wheels keep spinning 'round and 'roundWheels keep spinning 'round and 'round
Me and that train covered lot of ground
I wish I may, I wish I might
It's gonna be another long hot nightTrucks are flying up and down I-10
I can hear them in the distance
Tired drivers trying to beat the heatWe used to drive with the headlights out
Moonlight on the highway
You were sleeping with your head in my lapYou were sleeping with your head in my lap
Life don't get much better than that
Hubcaps spinning in the light
It's gonna be another long hot nightHow'd I let it get so wrong?
The days roll by but the nights drag on
Trying to find a way to get on track
But I'm spinning wheels, looking back

I'm just spinning wheels, looking backShots ring out in the middle of a dream
Car tires squealing
For a moment I wonder where I amI'm right here in this little hot house
With no one beside me
I'm listening to the wobble of the ceiling fanI'm listening to the wobble of the ceiling fan
I wish I were a better man
Gonna keep trying till I get it right
It's gonna be another long hot nightLong hot night, long hot night, long hot night

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Though best known for his acting career, Costner is no stranger to the art of making music and songwriting. The band's history goes back some 20 years when Kevin first met band mate John Coinman in Los Angeles during an acting workshop. The two began playing and writing music together and soon after started a band called "Roving Boy." As Kevin's star began to rise, he was unable to devote much time to the band. However, he and some of the band members continued behind-the-scenes playing, writing, and recording anytime they could throughout the years.

A few years back the itch became stronger for Costner to start performing on a more regular basis. Costner recalls a performance back in August 2005 and remarks, "I remember looking out into the crowd, thinking `this just feels right'." And with that, his passion continued to grow with the end product of that passion being the debut album, Untold Truths.

Radio programmer, Scott Lindy was one of the first people to hear the new album and had this to say, "I know what you're thinking about when you hear Kevin's gonna put out an album of country music. I thought it too. But then I heard it, and I got it. He's not chasing fame here (do you really think he needs to?), he's following a passion. I couldn't keep this music off of the air."

The album is comprised of 12 original tracks all written or co-written by Kevin Costner & Modern West (Modern West is John Coinman, Blair Forward, Teddy Morgan, Larry Cobb and Park Chisolm). A 4-song sampler was shipped to Country radio October 1 and included tracks "Long Hot Night", "Hey Man What About You", "90 Miles An Hour" and "Superman 14." The band will tour later this year and into early 2009 in support of the release. Read more on Last.fm.
